A HUNDRED YEARS A HEROl
HOW SETH WARNER WON WIFE AND BE-
CAME FAMOUS.

Colonel Seth Warner, of Vermont, the
famous hero of the Revolutionary war,
was leading fighter for the Hampshire
grants.
These titles were disputed by the State
of New York, and its authorities obtain
ed an edict OF the king of England in
their favor. The settlers were stung by
the supposed injustice. This state of
things brought Colonel Seth Warner to
the front. With Ethan Allen aud others
be actively opposed every effort of the
New York state authorities to enforce
possession, aud finally he, with Allen
and others, were outlawed and a price
put on their heads!
To circumvent New York, it was neces-
sary that some one should go into that
state and gain required information.
Colonel Warner, assuming for safety the
name of ''Dr. Howard" undertook this
perilous and romantic journey.
While on his way home he stopped at
q country inn, where an old gentleman
and daughter were storm bound. The
father fell i'll and the daughter called up
Oh Colonel Warner, who, with his wide
knowledge of simple remedies, success,

ly won this devoted women for wife.
Such Incidents were not uncommon in
those years. When the doctor was not
easily reached, months of sickness, and
even life were often saved by some IN
professional friend versed III the use OF
simple herbs and roots. The health of
early settlers and their powers of endur
ance convince us that such medicines did
only good and left no poison In the blood
to work as much injury to the system as
would the disease itself.
In time of peace the colonel was iu
constant demand for his knowledge OF
| simple remedies and their power over dis
sease. But it was left to another of bis
name of the present age to give to the
public what was then used with such DO.
| sitive success.
Warner for over hundred years has
shared with Ethan Allen the admiration
| OF the American people.
Colonel Seth Warner belongs to fam
| lily of wide distinction; no less than eight
members thereof won fame in the prac
| tice of medicine.
Looking to the adoption by the people
of this generation of the old time simple
remedies. his direct descendant, Fl Il
| Warner, the we'll known proprietor OF
| Warmers safe cure, for many years has
| been experime nting with old time roots
| and herbs formula and, his search hav
ing been finally rewarded with success
he gives the world the result. These re
cipes and formul@ in other days accom-
| plished great things because they were
purely vegetable and combined simply
so as to cure the disease indicated, with
out injury to the system. In harmon,
with their old time character, we Learn
that he proposes TO call them Warner
